The MS version at least can be wined without issue. However, there are tons of lightweight image editors that run as fast as MS paint and offer more features; have you tried Pinta ? or gnome-paint ?

At first glance they do support SSL , but not TLS ; basically your browser laughed at their antiquated protocol.

Same here (with noscript as well). Although I'll say it's hard to blame web developers for not considering the case where JS is disabled beyond a simple "you need Javascript to see this page" message (though even that te

Both good points (although the second one could be handled through a meta refresh I guess). But I'd like to point out we were discussing where javascript is absolutely needed, not where it's convenient.

Unless you're considering client-side encryption, I don't think webmails qualify either (squirrelmail, for example, works pretty well without JS).

I do the same when it comes to JS, with noscript (although umatrix looks even better, thanks); if only because - on top of the privacy implication - almost all the browser 0days these days come from JS.

Yeah, basically all BIOS have that. Some simply need a FAT usb key inserted with a specifically-named file that the BIOS looks for instead of a "true" bootable media.

Yeah, I've read that too and it seems logical; but again, the account I linked above says it isn't (which is what I found weird) - it says mostly you experience weakness but not pain, at least not after a few days.

And if you can't test it (but you indeed really, really should - and if not easily available to you, a lot of DNM markets also have sellers of reagent tests), at the very least start with minute amounts - and a sitter - before increasi

Yeah; the largest ones are not single vendors but whole operations with strong opsec: use of separate fully encrypted laptops dedicated to the activity, networks of "senders" that'll roam the country sending the packages from

Absolutely. For those testing communities too, reputation / track record is everything. And since a lot (but, sadly, still a minority) of customers will also reagent the product themselves - a lot of them in countries, especially in th

This has happened on a few occasions (all of them opioids laced with fentanyl by vendors). The community tends to name and shame such vendors a lot when it occurs, and markets will ban them; but the very anonymity linked to the process make

Not only that, but some of those markets (mostly defunct ones by now though, and only a minority) hired "official" doctors to answer questions from the users on drug use or similar. You also have communities (like the "DNM av

Thank you for your response. I imagine in the case of a hunger strike in prison - which the above testimony was about - the fact that you're basically not moving all day must help with the weakness (not to mention slow down the actual

Out of curiosity, beyond the weakness, how painful / unpleasant was the experience ? I've read in an account collated from a hunger strike participant that starving is a bit unpleasant the first few days and then pretty much OK (w

Indeed. I edited my post accordingly.

Agreed; it's a good way to visualize just how much time was required for the biosphere to produce those fossil fuels but not how much energy would be required to scrub the carbon itself (and I didn't say that, although my statem

Exactly. And the very act of stopping most fossil fuel use may result in a very fast increase of warming because of the diminution of global dimming - although how much (and wether or not it's significant) is highly debatable - could b

And there are many, many such feedback loops, and not all of them linked to methane. For example, as the climate warms there are more and more wildfires, and those emits tons of carbon as well. Another example is the decrease in CO2 absopti

The vast majority of people in prison are not dangerous (and, in my view at least, don't belong there), at least in the US.

Also if it doesn't work (happens from time to time) or disappears, they have a tor mirror that works consistently: scihub22266oqcxt.onion.

It's also amazingly simple to configure (though to be fair that applies to nginx as well, especially coming from apache) and well documented; its performances are great too.

That is the reason indeed. For years Pulseaudio was a pain in the backside to use - not just on Ubuntu but on Debian as well. I still dislike it and think it's overengineered but today it works pretty well to be honest; as long as your

Not all of them - which likely means it'd have the same result or worse as the boiling mentioned above. I believe freezing is, however, extremely effective again parasites (but there won't be in the sponge though).
